Show Notes

Introduction

Hi everybody, it’s Joe Lamp’l and welcome to Growing a Greener World. Well if you love to garden and spend time outdoors, and really care about environmental stewardship, you’ve come to the right place.

Back by popular demand, it’s another conversation with the “Bug Lady”, Suzanne Wainwright-Evans. You loved what she had to say before and this week, she picks right back up where she left off without missing a beat. As a full time ornamental entomologist, and avid gardener, she loves bringing her work home with her. As you’ll hear, she is a fountain of information and clearly passionate about her work. Even when I asked her what I thought was just a so-so question, Suzanne responded with answers that went well beyond my expectations.

Her specialty in Integrated Pest Management keeps her in high-demand with greenhouse and wholesale growers around the country. She’s the owner of Buglady Consulting and now that spring is just around the corner, I thought we’d check back in with Suzanne to see what she can tell us about how to get a jump on eco-friendly pest control this season and more…
